Moments you never forget
Certain aspects of that day I Will never forgot.
Colchester getting the point against Wendies.
The tannoy announcment after the game.
The Charlton players will not be coming back out, please could the Charlton Fans Leave.
Charlton fans not moving and breaking out into a chorus of Bring out the Champions.
Finally the players were aloud out to celebrate
The players running towards are corner of the stand.
The car journey back with @stackitsteve both singing pretty much the whole way back.
Moments that to this day still make me smile.

The tannoy bloke at Selhurst announcing that we'd be kept in for 15 minutes after the final whistle, Palace fans jeering at us and then Dennis Rommedahl popping in in the last minute of stoppage time to give us a magnificent 15-minute post-match party. All the better for Chris Powell joining in from the Sky TV box right next to us.11

A less happier 1 for me.
Away for a day trip with my then Fiance to Fantasy Island.
Had a nice day was walking back to get train to Boston and looked at the time which was around 4.40 so said I am just gonna nip into Coral to see the final score will meet u at station.
Walked into Coral was in the for about 5 minutes and saw this moment of horror.
Charlton Athletic 2-2 Blackpool
Charlton are relegated.
Despite the fact we all knew it was coming it still ruined my day.0 -

Kermo's goal at The Valley vs Hartlepool.
Not just for his goal itself mind, although it was a cracker! That entire afternoon was a genuine highlight for being a Charlton Fan.
A cracking pre-match with the entertainment from the Red Devils, a sell out crowd with a great atmosphere, and a real sense of unity amongst the fans.
Almost a watershed moment, and although the next season had some brilliant moments - i.e Cardiff (H) - the wheels were already getting a bit wobbly by then. It's all been downhill since I guess.9 -
Was at a hotel in North East Ko Phangan, Thailand and we were sitting on sunbeds/chairs just below a raised restaurant area. We went up to the restaurant and sat by the side overlooking where we had been sitting below. All of a sudden there was a big crash as a 15foot python type snake fell out of a tree from about 30 foot up and crashed into the table and chairs we had just vacated. Slithered off into the overgrowth and left us very nervous for the next few days when in that area.4

Charlton losing at home to Doncaster 3 nil turned my phone off. My daughter was born at 16:08 turned my phone back on game abandoned. Great results all round. Will never forget the look on my wife face as I was jumping around the delivery room. 24/08/13.6

The moment that Sky Sports News announced that Zabeel were in talks to take over Charlton. They had built it up before the adverts, saying "After the break we reveal which Championship club are the next to be taken over by wealthy investors", and I thought "Wouldn't it be great if it was us for once".
Yet another crushing disappointment...4 -
Being in an Irish pub in Philly back in 2004, watching Palarse v Charlton. Place was packed, as it was game day (Philly Eagles v Packers later same day). All TV's, apart from one was showing pre-match stuff. They'd graciously allowed me to watch the Palarse game on a smaller TV in a corner. Only ones watching was me and a Birmingham supporter. When Dennis scored, I absolutely lost it. Jumping around, screaming. Pub went quiet and people just stared at me, like there was something wrong with me. After I'd calmed down I went up to order another pint of Guinness. An older guy next to me (for some reason I remember he was wearing a US Navy cap) looked at me like I wasn't all there and said: 'Get a grip, will ya?'16

About 20 years ago I was sitting there on the loo and I farted the first part of Daniel by Elton John. “Daniel is traveling tonight on a plane” Not the words obviously. Just the tune. I’ve tried many many times since to reproduce that magic moment but have never got further than “Daniel is” . My quest continues but I’m not hopeful of it ever happening again.24

Breaking my laptop at uni when Jordan Cousins equalised against Fulham, had my arm under the charging cable and went ballistic when he scored, worth it though1

Going slightly mad when the 3rd goal went in against Watford, meaning we were safe from relegation after a long hard period of games.1

When Mr. Lockwood confirmed we were champions of League 1 when SCP was manager, loved that squad, little did we know what was around the corner1

Similar experience at Maine Road, Man City needed to beat us to have any chance of staying up. They had 10 men and we had Steve Brown in goal. They scored and made it 2-1 with 2 mins to go. The tannoy bloke said we had to stay behind at the end, and clearly no one would have done! Then the put the board up saying 3 mins injury time, and Steve Jones scored a header in the 4th minute of added time. I fell over 6 rows of seats celebrating, as did most people. I think we stayed an extra 30 mins in the end! lolMrLargo said:The tannoy bloke at Selhurst announcing that we'd be kept in for 15 minutes after the final whistle, Palace fans jeering at us and then Dennis Rommedahl popping in in the last minute of stoppage time to give us a magnificent 15-minute post-match party.

The half time at Coventry in the FA Cup is the most memorable in history! We were 2-0 down, are captain picked up an injury (which would keep him out the rest of the season), it was all doom and gloom .... and then 4 mins of brilliance!
A goal back from Robinson, before Shaun Newton equalizer .... and the Charlton end didn't shut up singing all through half time! Never heard that before, or since!
Then when Andy Hunt got the winner a few mins from time, the place went crazy! Everyone was hugging everyone, money & programmes where flying through the air as everyone was going mental.
Oh, and lets not forget the kick off being delayed due to the amount of red and white balloons being thrown on the pitch

May 1996 - we drew 1-1 with Wolves. It was the last home game of the season (except for the play-off semi vs Croydon) and it had just been confirmed we had made the play offs, finishing in 6th place.
We ran from the covered end onto the pitch and whilst we were celebrating the steward that always stood by the tunnel started coming towards me. I thought he was going to grab me by the scruff of the neck and tell me to get back in the stand, but he put his arm around me and said "Millwall have been relegated as well".

There was certain urinal on a Hayling Island holiday camp where a mate of mine could make his pissing sound like Donald Sinden.ShootersHillGuru said:About 20 years ago I was sitting there on the loo and I farted the first part of Daniel by Elton John. “Daniel is traveling tonight on a plane” Not the words obviously.

Not exactly a massively important game, but Oldham away in the SCP promotion season when we went 10 men down then Kermy scored, then we went down to 9 men, we held on through pure grit and determination. Yann collapsed out of pure exhaustion as soon as the final whistle went. After that I knew we were going up without a doubt, before then I'd always avoided believing too much in fear of disappointment. After that I knew and just enjoyed the ride until it became official. Good times.
Only sour note was that I nearly placed a 50 quid bet at the start of the season at 100/1 that we'd go up but didn't want to jinx us. Damn it.0 -
Definitely the moment @ Carlisle when we won promotion (so much better than the following week when we were confirmed champions which felt hollow)
The 1-1 draw with Yeovil when it pissed it down with rain, will never forget that - Will also be one of my favourite ever away games0 -

Speaking of half time, the West ham game midweek where we won 4-2 was a pretty special atmosphere at half time. Also Chelsea away when they "Never lost as penalties don't count" was very good, I was queuing for half time beer when Benty equalised.

Yeah in the concourses they must have replayed Jenson's equalising free kick and Parker's first about 20 times from various different angles. Every time they showed it a massive roar went up. Bedlam.C_Jensens_Love_Child said:Leaburn Forever said:
